beep...

The busy tone sounded in my ear, and the other end hung up without saying a word.

Bai Ge pouted, "That's ridiculous."

In an old apartment building not far from Bai Ge's residence, all the curtains were drawn, making it completely airtight.

There was only one dim light bulb illuminating the dull living room.

The middle-aged man wearing glasses slammed his fist hard on the table, nearly knocking over the ashtray.

He put down the prepared manuscript, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. He unscrewed the medicine bottle and swallowed his blood pressure medication. He said, "It seems that this guy's thinking is tricky and indeed different from ordinary people. It is not much different from the information provided in that intelligence report."

Another team member whispered, "I heard this guy has some connections with the Special Affairs Bureau. Will making a move here attract their attention? Besides, we haven't been able to assess his strength yet. What if he's a player or a special expert? It could cause quite a stir."

"Don't panic."

The middle-aged man pulled out a glass bottle filled with black pills. "These are the organization's newly developed demon pills. After taking them, a person will temporarily transform into a demon, multiplying their strength. Even the Special Affairs Bureau will only consider it a normal bizarre murder case and won't suspect us. Moreover, after taking the demon pills, our strength will be close to that of a high-level player. With the four of us forcibly elevated to the level of high-level players, are we afraid of just one of them?"

One of the team members asked hesitantly, "But...don't we need to apply for assistance from the local branch?"

"unnecessary."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Organizations like the House of Evolution and the Choir, as well as some medium to large-sized organizations, are also keeping an eye on Yaotai Town. They are also conducting investigations and will definitely find this person soon. We are afraid that other players will get there first once the aid application is in place, so we can't delay any longer. We'll make our move tonight!"

After hanging up the phone, Bai Ge glanced at the demon god Shiranui, who was lying on the sofa watching Bilibili and laughing heartily, and rubbed his forehead.

You were a prominent yokai in the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) group, and yet you were taken down by a Bilibili premium membership?

This guy didn't learn anything else after being transported to the real world, but he picked up League of Legends very quickly by teaming up with paper dolls.

I don't know why the little fox and Shiranui often don't get along. The two of them are full of hostility whenever they meet. When they argue, one of them is a loud whimpering amplifier, and the other is a loud, shrill old voice.

After playing two rounds of King of Glory, Shiranui decided to go out for some crayfish, a bubble tea, and bring back an iced watermelon while watching variety shows and scooping it out with a spoon.

With so many delicious foods in human society, Shiranui only wanted to eat and drink every day, living like a lazy bum, and had long since abandoned her lofty ideals and ambitions to become a great yokai.

Moreover, ever since she made strawberry mapo tofu and braised pork with kiwi for dinner last time, Bai Ge has strictly forbidden her from going near the kitchen again.

The player, who was hiding deep in the alley and enduring mosquito bites, saw a girl dressed in a white top and red skirt, a shrine maiden outfit, walking out while scrolling through her phone.

The middle-aged man in charge of surveillance slammed his fist against the wall, cursing, "Damn it, I didn't expect this guy's girlfriend to be a young and cute Japanese beauty. It's infuriating and makes me jealous!"

The other team members were secretly thinking, "Hey, captain, you've got the point wrong! Is this the time to focus on this?"

"Captain, what should we do? Should we follow him or..."

After a moment's thought, the middle-aged man said, "Go up there and tie her up. That guy will definitely risk everything to save his girlfriend. Does anyone here speak Japanese? Go and lure her over first."

As a result, everyone else looked at each other blankly.

The middle-aged man's lips twitched, and he said coldly, "Can't you do anything? You're all useless, making me do everything myself! Watch closely, you idiots."

The demon goddess Shiranui was browsing Meituan, wondering if she should get a cup of cheese grape tea with 30% sugar when she went to the store later. But the girl pinched the fat on her belly, shook her head, and decided to have a cup of handmade lemon tea instead.

Low-sugar lemon tea is the best ever!

"You're so stingy!"

Before she even left the alley, a strange uncle in a trench coat, his face covered in stubble, blocked her way. His wrinkles were practically piled up in a grin. With a slightly lewd expression, he asked with a sly smile, "Hey, my pretty girl, what's up?"

Chapter 113 Don't hold back, just chop!

As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone around him wanted to complain, "Wait a minute, boss, this isn't Japanese, is it?" They were afraid that their boss would say "Yamamoto, I fuck your immortal" next.

At first, even as the leader, he wasn't very confident about his Japanese skills. But then the girl in front of him suddenly stood up straight, bowed slightly, and said, "Hi, Shimi Masai, I'm the one who drinks milk tea!"

"Huh?"

The middle-aged man and the other team members behind him were stunned. What the heck? How did they manage to connect to this channel?

The girl, Shiranui, asked cautiously in broken Chinese, "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression instantly changed. He pulled out a thick hemp rope from behind his back and said coldly, "Be serious, stop grinning like that, stand still, I'm here to kidnap you!"

The other team members quickly surrounded them, drawing their weapons and encircling the girls.

The girl's face didn't show any fear or unease. Instead, she blinked curiously and asked, "Kidnapping?"

"We assume you're just an ordinary person. As long as you cooperate with us obediently, we guarantee you won't suffer. If you don't cooperate, don't blame us for being impolite."

"what?"

The girl scratched her head, the bells in her hair making a crisp sound. She said with a troubled expression, "All I did was mess up my teammates in the game and swore a few times. Is it really necessary to come looking for me through the internet?"

The middle-aged man's lips twitched, and he said sternly, "Shut up! What do you mean by 'playing games'? I'm serious! Come with us now, and we'll call your boyfriend later and tell him to bring money to ransom you!"

You've misunderstood.

The girl shook her head like a rattle-drum, her face slightly flushed, and she quickly explained, "That man is not my boyfriend, he is my master."

Why are you blushing like a teapot?!

"what?"

The middle-aged man was stunned. He hadn't expected the plot to still involve slave girls. Had he really fallen behind the times?

Looks like we'll have to take a hard line!

The robe was lifted, and the middle-aged man drew the Abyss Sword from his waist. A black, worn-out weapon with traces of acid corrosion on its blade appeared before the Shiranui girl. The moment the sword was drawn, a fierce black mist, along with the killing intent released by the sword, instantly spread outwards.

The middle-aged man said, word by word, "If you don't come with us, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Oh."

The girl's innocent eyes instantly switched to a fierce killing intent as she grabbed at the air with both hands, shattering the Swallow Blade, which was now only half intact.

The middle-aged man's expression changed. He brandished the Abyss Sword, from which countless phantom-like skeletons, formed from black mist, struggled and howled in pain. "Interesting. I am the 13th Captain of the Black Gloves of the Frankenstein Alliance, King Serpent. State your name."

The girl simply uttered three words, "Shiranui".

"very good."

Wang She glanced at the broken blade in the girl's hand, released his left hand from the sword, raised the sword with one hand and pointed it at her head, saying, "I'll give you a handicap with one hand, so don't say I'm bullying your broken katana."

"unnecessary."

The girl pulled a gun from her wide sleeve, pointed it at the middle-aged man in front of her, and said, "This is the truth I learned after dying a thousand times at the hands of a senior from Ashina. If a sword can't reach it, a gun will."

Bai Ge had just exited the system's flea market, browsing through it without finding the quest item he wanted. He glanced at his watch; according to his previous assumptions, these guys should already be itching to make their move.

The warning devices placed around the house to detect malicious behavior were not triggered, indicating that the prey had not yet stepped into the trap and was still just lingering nearby.

Just as Bai Ge was lost in thought, a loud crash resounded, the wall was smashed open, and a man wielding a black longsword appeared in front of him in a disheveled state.

Wang She's hands were trembling; the opponent's inexplicable strength made him want to flee. The girl before him couldn't even be called human; she was a demon in human skin.

Wait a minute?

I think I was just knocked into the wall by her, doesn't that mean...

He suddenly turned his head and saw a person sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking him up and down.

"You're the target?"

Without any hesitation, the King Serpent swallowed the pill it carried with it. As its Adam's apple bobbed, its eyes suddenly changed, turning into golden vertical pupils! Dense scales grew on its rough skin, and it flicked its tongue, resembling a monster that was half snake and half human.

"I'd like to see just how capable you are!"

After consuming the demon pill, it seemed to gain boundless power and lunged at Bai Ge, attempting to sever his limbs with a single sword strike. However, Bai Ge also drew a strangely shaped knife from his inventory and blocked the Abyss Sword.

With a clang, sparks flew and the blades clashed, producing a crisp sound.

However, when that strange blade struck the Abyss Sword, it was as if it were an abyss that was endlessly drawing in demonic energy. The demonic power within the body was rapidly draining away, and the sharp blade began to be covered with a layer of fine blood vessels and a thin membrane, as if it were a demonic blade that could suck blood and flesh.

"No, we must take that knife!"

Realizing something was wrong, Wang She also saw through Bai Ge's lack of expertise in swords and other weapons, and after creating an opening, he stole the Demon King's bone hammer.

The king cobra gripped the blade in its hand as if it were a living thing, and could clearly feel a rhythmic sound like a heartbeat coming from beneath the flesh.

"Go to hell you!"

With a flash of fierce light in his eyes, Wang She raised his katana, preparing to slash at Bai Ge.

"Come on! Don't be shy! Slash here!"

Bai Ge pointed to his forehead and said righteously, "If you don't send me to the hospital today, you're disrespecting my medical insurance card!"

???

Since the other party made such a strange request, Wang She didn't hold back and used his wrist strength to slash down on Bai Ge's crown.

Draw the sword, slash, and sheath it.

The movements were fluid and seamless, performed in one go.

However, the other party stood right in front of him, completely unharmed.

"what?"

King Snake stared wide-eyed, almost unable to believe what he was seeing. "What's going on?"

Bai Ge scoffed, "Didn't you eat? You're so weak, yet you're trying to act like a gangster and start a fight?"

"shut up!"

As a sword-wielding player, he hates it most when others question his skill level. This time, Wang She was so angry that he slashed at Bai Ge's neck, trying to decapitate him in one blow.

However, the other party remained alive and unharmed.

"No way? This is a kind knife that can't hurt anyone?"

With a tentative thought in mind and full of doubt, the king cobra gently stabbed his own palm.

In the next instant, all the blood vessels in his body burst, and blood gushed out wildly.

Chapter 114 Have you considered joining Skynet?

I'm experiencing some writer's block, so I'll just write 8,000 words today.

Despite the pain of blood loss, King Snake covered his mouth, clearly feeling a metallic taste in it. He said in alarm, "Something's not right, friend. Why do I still have a strange metallic taste in my mouth?"

Bai Ge explained, "That might be because you triggered the debuff on the Demon King's bone hammer."
